An interesting industry is the business services industry. Nearly 100 companies are related to the sector of which only 30 pay dividends to their shareholders. The total capitalization of the sector amounts to $7.25 trillion. The average dividend yield within the industry amounts to 25.4 and the yield reaches 1.1 percent. I like the industry because of the high profit margins, which correspond at 10.20 percent and are one of the highest values in the sector. The most known stocks are Visa (V), MasterCard (MA) and Moody’s (MCO). Business service is often financial networked.
I made a screen of the best yielding stocks within the business services industry. In order to reduce the huge amount of 30 dividend-paying business service stocks, I selected only those with double-digit earnings per share growth. As a result, 16 stocks remain of which market analysts trust in 11 companies and recommend them to buy now. Here are my favorite companies I would buy: Western Union (WU), Mercadolibre (MELI) and Mastercard (MA).
